Every 21 seconds,a child dies from a water-related disease, and diarrhea remains the second leading cause of death of children under the age of five worldwide. The problem is enormous but solutions are available. Kids with access to safe water are healthier and can attend school regularly, which is important to making sure that kids like us can succeed and follow their dreams, just like we can follow ours.
Knowing that kids just like us don't get what we have the opportunity we have to get clean. To all of us, we cant help but wonder what a child would do to get just a bottle of clean water. We are 3 6th graders from the Brooklyn School of Inquiry who KNOW this is not right. So many kids out there cant get the water they need. We actually know people who don't get clean water. We know this should be stopped. But it can only be stopped if someone decides to stand up and do something about it. We have decided to do do something about it, but we can't do this alone. Help us get to our 3,000 dollar goal, and change a child's life forever.
For every $25 that we raise, we can help Water.org give someone access to safe water for life. Together, we can change lives with safe water.
